We support our clients in the mining and metals sector across geographies to develop their responses to the climate change challenge, and their strategy for the future.

Accounting Compliance and Reporting (ACR) – ACR services are focused on outsourced services to help large, multinational companies meet their accounting and statutory reporting requirements globally. Mining and metals companies are often engaged in finance transformation initiatives, marked by expansion into emerging markets, the deployment of Shared Services Centers (SSCs) and the continuous drive for efficiency and lower costs.

By outsourcing their statutory reporting along with their tax compliance and reporting to EY, our clients receive integrated, worldwide coverage across the entire ‘record-to-report’ process.
